Research Abstract |
We have investigated crystal structure and C-H…O=C hydrogen bonding by using infrared (IR) spectroscopy and wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) for poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly (3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHV). PHB has a particular C-H…O=C hydrogen bonding between the C=O group and the CH_3 group along the a axis, which is the same direction as its chain folding direction. On the other hand, PHV has C-H…O=C hydrogen bondings between the C=O group and the one or two CH_2 groups in the main or side chains. The difference in the chain folding direction between PHV and PHB may come from the difference in the inter- or intramolecular interactions in their crystal structures. It is very likely that the C-H…O=C hydrogen bonding stabilizes the chain folding in the lamella structure of PHB and PHV.
